the full harris said:How on earth can such a timid, politely put question rile Mark McGhee so much?! I like McGhee, he comes across as entertaining and even charismatic on the forum recording but he really let himself down on that question. It sounds like he is really offended that anyone could question his judgement. He seems much more upset by that question than when he earlier talks about us having to trust his judgement on Molango not being up to it. Then he sounded perfectly calm, but when speaking about McCammon he sounded almost upset, almost ranting, almost losing his temper even. Maybe that is because it has been so embarassingly obvious that McCammon was a huge mistake, from acquiring him, to playing him, to even the length of contract he has been given in. I think McGhee is very embarassed by the McCammon situation and really dislikes it being brought up. No one likes to be proved wrong.

London Irish said:The sequence of events was this.
McCammon scapegoater asks what on the face of it is a reasonable question, perhaps somewhat loaded, but he gets away with it initially because it is done in a seemingly polite manner.
McGhee then answers the question politely along the lines of saying that other players are now in front of Big Mac, but suddenly something causes McGhee to stop, and he then smokes out the agenda of the questioner by challenging him to "say what you mean".
What caused McGhee's attitude to change I can't swear to because I wasn't there, but I'm willing to bet he looked at the questioner's demeanour and correctly spotted the immature scapegoating agenda.
So although Hawsey moves the agenda on, McGhee takes the highly unusual step of 1) taking the discussion back to Big Mac and outlining the player's contribution to our successful survival campaign and 2) expressing his anger at a transparent attempt to rubbish one of his own players in such an immature way.
Now, I'm absolutely delighted that the Full Harris and Uncle Buck want to have a pop at McGhee for doing this, because it confirms what we all know - that McGhee wasn't just slapping down this questioner forcefully, he was making it clear to everyone his attitude towards fans who scapegoat his players in a stupid and immature way
I say to Full Harris and Uncle Buck, if the cap of McGhee's criticism fits you so snugly, please, I'm delighted that you are wearing it
London Irish said:Are you sure this comment is not meant for the "am I happy" thread
the full harris said:I can say this after having read countless posts from yourself: You are a man (or at least an internet persona) who is good with words but bears nothing of integrity or humility. If you behave in a manner even approaching this in real life, which I am sure do NOT (surely it would be impossible to be like that?!!), you must be a very lonely person indeed.
I presume you are just someone who likes making people feel small on the internet which is rather pathetic in my opinion but, each to their own...
Uncle Buck said:Nope it was meant for you on this thread.
Just decided on plain English, rather than snidey put downs, had enough of them tonight.
London Irish said:I hope you're feeling better in the morning

Yes, perhaps a tad hard... Lets try something easier... Are you going to the next cricket match, when is it? will you buy me a beer and a mexican wrap?the full harris said:I would but it seems a bit of an effort.
